Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Ok Ron and Mike, you've poked the sleeping bear long enough, time to take a few patriotic types out of hibernation for your viewing (and maybe purchase) pleasure. Enjoy

WOW - I saw this on the bay. NICE!!!ScoutKnives wrote:The Sea Scout came in yesterday , beautiful example .
Th e description mentioned something about:
"It is rumored to have sat on the president of the company until it's bankruptcy. It is from the estate collection of Howard F Schwartz AKA Merchant to the Melancholy."
You think there is any truth to this? Have you seen any more of these?

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Of coarse it's all here say but the nice lady that sold it was selling off the estate of Mr Schwartz . She went on saying that he is still alive but in a nursing home and needing to liquidate .
I have another example with etch but this one is in near mint to mint condition .

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Adog, your collection of Bulldogs almost leaves me speechless. But congratulations on your superb collection.
Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
What do you folks think a 60's Kamp King, almost mint, scout style would be worth.
But not for sale....

So many knives, too little time...
Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
Here's one from eBay that recently sold for about $40: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-IMPERIA ... 7675.l2557
Hope that helps you out with your valuation.

Re: The All Scout Knives Thread
No offense meant to anyone here, but I cannot understand a Kamp King selling for forty dollars.
If that's the case, then higher quality American made knives are undervalued.
